# json_lua

## Purpose

This mod is is a wrapper for json.lua, since it is faster and more independent from the MT functions minetest.parse_json and minetest.write_json

## Download

Get the mod from https://gitea.your-land.de/your-land/json_lua

Source json.lua : https://github.com/aryajur/json.lua.git

This appears to be a maintained version, in contrast to many others. Original is here:

https://github.com/rxi/json.lua.git

## Installation

Being a template, you shouldn't install the mod itself. Your mod could look like this:

## Usage

This is a library.

Use json_lua.json.encode instead of minetest.parse_json and json_lua.json.decode instead of minetest.write_json

See [README](json.lua/README.md)

## Supported versions

All: There is no reason to assume this library would not run with next to any MT version

If you run json_lua, but something is wrong, please [file a bug](https://gitea.your-land.de/your-land/json_lua/issues/new). PRs also welcome.

## Uninstall

Remove it from your mod folder or deactivate it in your world.mt

Mods that depend on it will cease to work, if the mod is removed without proper replacement.
